6.6 Web Browser
NOTE: The web browser is a purchasable option. Please contact Spirent for more information.
The Web Browser allows you to access web pages from the internet and view them on the screen. It
may be especially useful for verifying that internet access is available, beyond a simple ping test. If a
residential subscriber cannot view a web page but you can with the unit, you can normally conclude that
the trouble exists with the subscriber’s web browser, computer, or home network configuration. It may
also be used to verify that a DNS is available.
The Web Browser is similar to a browser used on a desktop computer, except that the smaller screen
may require more use of the scroll bars. Furthermore, aside from basic hyperlinks, most webpage
controls may not work correctly. In some cases, complex pages with extensive internal scripting may not
display correctly or at all, so it is recommended that you use simple, fast-loading web pages to perform
tests. In summary, the browser is intended as a testing tool, not as a fully-functional interface to the
internet.
To access the Web Browser, the active interface must be configured with valid, routable IP information.
For more information, see IP Network Setup on page 6-1.
